Isle of Man Trust Establishment

For an Isle of Man client, a trust can separate legal ownership of assets from the people intended to benefit from them, but it needs to be established for a clear purpose and administered properly.

Isle of Man has an established trust and fiduciary-services sector, making it a practical jurisdiction to consider where the structure and family circumstances are suitable.

Who this service is for

This service is for individuals and families considering or already using an Isle of Man wealth structure and wanting the trust establishment handled professionally.

We start by understanding the family, the assets involved and what the structure is intended to achieve before any provider is approached.

What we check before we start

We review the proposed role of the Isle of Man structure, the people involved, the assets and the information a fiduciary provider is likely to require.

For an Isle of Man client, source of wealth, source of funds, tax residence and beneficial ownership need to be transparent. Where legal or tax advice is required, it is obtained from appropriately qualified advisers.
